I swear to god if you guys ruin the Gambit thread

Or the Panther thread.

On the bright side the only superhero movie thread that won't be shat on is Incredibles 2 and maybe Animated Spider-Man and ironically they are aimed for a younger audience.

[MyMovieCanBeatUpYourMovie]

I like that it's such a different take on the superhero genre.

 

On the other hand, that's a pretty unremarkable trailer, IMO.  Curious to see what the general online reaction to it will be.

[75Live]

just watched the trailer.  It was decent, nothing that excites me but a horror flick with mutants could be fun to watch at least if I see it   

[Hiccup23]

I'm interested...was not expecting that. 

[Rebeccas]

Almost looks like a Blumhouse production. I'm intrigued but I don't know how I confident I am in how this will turn out. Probably better than the Dark Phoenix movie though.

 

I'm willing to give Fox a break though cause even though they hardcore flop at some franchise films (F4, Apocalypse), they also gave us Logan and War for the Planet of the Apes. So if every other film is terrible so one film can be amazing, I'll take it!

Looks pretty intersting. Even if they're a bit too on the nose with the "it's a horror movie guys" thing. With the jump scares, creepy masked guy etc

I'm totally looking forward to this movie, but that trailer obviously isn't what we're used to in the era of billion dollar superhero special effects.

 

I suppose the main point of that trailer was to inform folks that this is going to be a horror movie, not a standard superhero flick. So they intentionally cut it so we would see some pretty recognizable horror movie cues that, while somewhat basic for the horror genre, would inform folks that we should expect a very different type of Marvel movie.

Like so.

Thank goodness cause I find SFX in SH movies to be universally terrible. Once we get to the OTT End of the Movie Battle, it becomes one giant SFX blot on the screen. Exception being Ant Man's scaled down fight. Even Logan had to insert that Godawful Growing Grass effect in an otherwise reasonable-level SFX movie.

This looks really good.

 

Oh, and it's hilarious how so many of you are calling Another Brick in the Wall a cover when it's THE ACTUAL DAMN SONG. It's like some of you haven't even listened to Pink Floyd and want those witty likes.

[The Futurist]

Trailer editors are gonna run out of iconic rock songs pretty fast.

I blame David Fincher for this.

 

[Ethan Hunt]

little bummed by the lack of teen angst there considering the writers and director but you know we'll see  

[filmlover]

Looks like a creepy (and refreshing) change of pace.

[Eric Atreides]

Looks pretty cool, minus the dude coming out of the wall (effect lowkey looked like something out of Haunting '99.)

[MCKillswitch123]

I found this... quite interesting, actually. Looks gorgeous, cinematography wise, and I love the cast. Yeah, sure, you can make the accusation that it's just a generic horror movie with X-Men slapped over it, but.... when was the last time that we have gotten a superhero horror movie? That is a very interesting concept in of itself. I hope this is good.

[Blaze Heatnix]

I loved the trailer and I was surprised with the tone and the dark setting. 

 

Is this movie gonna be rated R? It doesn't look like expensive and if it's horror oriented, then it's a plus. 

[MCKillswitch123]

There's no chance that this is more expensive than Deadpool. 50M tops for budget. It also does look R-rated, which continues to prove that the X-Men franchise is, currently, easily the biggest risk taker of the comic book genre, and all the good for it.

 

I hope this does better than X-Men: Apocalypse so that The Futurist drowns in his tears by seeing yet another X-verse movie be successful. Just like I hope that anyone that makes fun of Taika Waititi (Titty Waititi? Sweetheart, you call out trolls on one side, yet you do exactly what you accuse them of: you troll and you poison wells all the time. You're just as hypocritical as Superman in BVS - and that's not poisoning anything on my part, just making a comparison) chokes on their own vomit - non-lethally - at Ragnarok's numbers.

[marveldcfox]

Looks like a cool indie horror flick featuring people with powers. Stranger Things dude and Split girl is in this so automatic 2 points. 

 

But I want to say again, FUCK YOU FOX for fucking Fant4stic royally in post production and not letting it be what it was originally supposed to be - a small contained 50-60M horror sci-fi flick. What a waste of all the money and resources. You can tell that Josh Boone to some degree was inspired from what Trank was trying to do. Thank god Deadpool and Wolverine succeeded big time that's why we are getting this unique take else...sigh.

 

Now keep delivering cool unique cbms. 

 

 

[Morieris]

It doesn't interest me a whole bunch, but it did remind me of what Fantastic Four 2015 could have been.

 

Now I'm sad

Indie tropes are way worse than blockbusters.

 

Are your soundtrack all quirky & Pitchfork approved and has Elliot Smith/Cat Stevens folk songs ?

 

 

 

You got a problem with Elliott Smith and Cat Stevens?
